The Threat of Snow in South Texas
Again? Really? Didn't it just do this last year? They've been talking about it for a week, and it looks like it really might happen. The entire gulf coast is under a winter storm warning. "Rock" trucks, because we don't really have "salt" down here, are already working on the roads. I went to walmart last night to pick up Christmas cards with a friend. I joked with her about living in Indy and how as soon as they issued a winter storm warning the stores would be picked clean of milk, bread, and toilet paper. The first thing we saw when we walked in the store was a lady with a cart with.... Milk, bread, toilet paper, and a 5 gallon jug of water. Ok, first of all, yes it's going to get cold and may snow, BUT, I can pretty much guarantee you that all will be melted by tomorrow morning. Pretty funny. Anyway, the list of schools closing early is growing. So far, ours is not among them, much to the girls dismay. Today happened to be a very busy day for me, from morning to night. Guess I'll have to wait and see how much of what was planned gets cancelled. Good night to stay home and bake Christmas cookies!
